🕸️ Hauntingly Good Curb Appeal: Halloween Décor That Impresses — Not Scares Away Buyers header image.

If your home is on the market (or soon to be), Halloween is the perfect excuse to show off your property’s charm — with just the right touch of festive flair. The key? Keep it tasteful, tidy, and buyer-friendly.

1. Pumpkins and Mums Are Always a Win

Nothing says “fall welcome” like pumpkins and vibrant mums. Stick to a simple color palette — oranges, whites, and deep reds — to keep things classic.

2. Warm Lighting Works Wonders

As days get shorter, use soft outdoor lighting to highlight your home’s best features — porch lights, lanterns, or LED candles in windows add cozy appeal.

3. Skip the Gore

Bloody props, fake cobwebs, and spooky animatronics can distract buyers and make photos feel cluttered. Instead, think seasonal elegance — harvest wreaths, plaid throws, and tasteful décor.

4. Highlight Entryways

A well-decorated front door can make buyers fall in love before they even step inside. Add a festive wreath, a new doormat, and a pop of fall color.

🎃 Keep it festive, not frightening — and your home will look welcoming to both buyers and trick-or-treaters alike.
